Canticum Ezechiæ [4]
Isa 38:10-24
38:10 Ego dixi: In dimídio diérum meórum * vadam ad portas ínferi.
38:11 Quæsívi resíduum annórum meórum. * Dixi: Non vidébo Dóminum Deum in terra vivéntium.
38:12 Non aspíciam hóminem ultra, * et habitatórem quiétis.
38:13 Generátio mea abláta est, et convolúta est a me, * quasi tabernáculum pastórum.
38:14 Præcísa est velut a texénte, vita mea: dum adhuc ordírer, succídit me: * de mane usque ad vésperam fínies me.
38:15 Sperábam usque ad mane, * quasi leo sic contrívit ómnia ossa mea:
38:16 De mane usque ad vésperam fínies me: * sicut pullus hirúndinis sic clamábo, meditábor ut colúmba:
38:17 Attenuáti sunt óculi mei, * suspiciéntes in excélsum.
38:18 Dómine, vim pátior, respónde pro me. * Quid dicam, aut quid respondébit mihi, cum ipse fécerit?
38:19 Recogitábo tibi omnes annos meos * in amaritúdine ánimæ meæ.
38:20 Dómine, si sic vívitur, et in tálibus vita spíritus mei, corrípies me, et vivificábis me. * Ecce, in pace amaritúdo mea amaríssima:
38:21 Tu autem eruísti ánimam meam ut non períret: * projecísti post tergum tuum ómnia peccáta mea.
38:22 Quia non inférnus confitébitur tibi, neque mors laudábit te: * non exspectábunt qui descéndunt in lacum, veritátem tuam.
38:23 Vivens vivens ipse confitébitur tibi, sicut et ego hódie: * pater fíliis notam fáciet veritátem tuam.

134:7a Edúcens nubes ab extrémo terræ: * fúlgura in plúviam fecit.
134:7b Qui prodúcit ventos de thesáuris suis: * (8) qui percússit primogénita Ægýpti ab hómine usque ad pecus.
134:9 Et misit signa, et prodígia in médio tui, Ægýpte: * in Pharaónem, et in omnes servos ejus.
134:10 Qui percússit gentes multas: * et occídit reges fortes:

Ant. Blot out my iniquity, * O Lord, according to the multitude of your mercies.
Psalm 50 [1]
50:3a Be merciful to me, O God, * according to your great mercy.
50:3b And, according to the plentitude of your compassion, * wipe out my iniquity.
50:4 Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, * and cleanse me from my sin.
50:5 For I know my iniquity, * and my sin is ever before me.
50:6 Against you only have I sinned, and I have done evil before your eyes. * And so, you are justified in your words, and you will prevail when you are judged.
50:7 For behold, I was conceived in iniquities, * and in sinfulness did my mother conceive me.
50:8 For behold, you have loved truth. * The obscure and hidden things of your wisdom, you have manifested to me.
50:9 You will sprinkle me with hyssop, and I will be cleansed. * You will wash me, and I will be made whiter than snow.
50:10 In my hearing, you will grant gladness and rejoicing. * And the bones that have been humbled will exult.
50:11 Turn your face away from my sins, * and erase all my iniquities.
50:12 Create a clean heart in me, O God. * And renew an upright spirit within my inmost being.
50:13 Do not cast me away from your face; * and do not take your Holy Spirit from me.
50:14 Restore to me the joy of your salvation, * and confirm me with an unsurpassed spirit.
50:15 I will teach the unjust your ways, * and the impious will be converted to you.
50:16 Free me from blood, O God, the God of my salvation, * and my tongue will extol your justice.
50:17 O Lord, you will open my lips, * and my mouth will announce your praise.
50:18 For if you had desired sacrifice, I would certainly have given it, * but with holocausts, you will not be delighted.
50:19 A crushed spirit is a sacrifice to God. * A contrite and humbled heart, O God, you will not spurn.
50:20 Act kindly, Lord, in your good will toward Zion, * so that the walls of Jerusalem may be built up.
50:21 Then you will accept the sacrifice of justice, oblations, and holocausts. * Then they will lay calves upon your altar.

42:2 For you are God, my strength. * Why have you rejected me? And why do I walk in sadness, while the adversary afflicts me?
42:3 Send forth your light and your truth. * They have guided me and led me, to your holy mountain and into your tabernacles.
42:4 And I will enter, up to the altar of God, * to God who gladdens my youth.
42:5 To you, O God, my God, I will confess upon a stringed instrument. * Why are you sad, my soul? And why do you disquiet me?
42:6 Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: * the salvation of my countenance and my God.
℣ Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.

66:3 So may we know your way upon the earth, * your salvation among all nations.
66:4 Let the peoples confess to you, O God. * Let all the peoples confess to you.
66:5 May the nations rejoice and exult. * For you judge the peoples with equity, and you direct the nations on earth.
66:6 Let the peoples confess to you, O God. Let all the peoples confess to you. * (7a) The earth has provided her fruit.

Canticle of Hezekiah [4]
Isa 38:10-24
38:10 I said: In the middle of my days * I will go to the gates of Hell.
38:11 I sought the remainder of my years. * I said: I will not see the Lord God in the land of the living.
38:12 I will no longer behold man, * nor the inhabitant of rest.
38:13 My longevity has been taken away, and it has been folded up and taken from me, * like the tent of a shepherd.
38:14 My life has been cut off, as if by a weaver; while I was still beginning, he cut me off; * from morning until evening, you will bring me to an end.
38:15 I hoped, even until morning; * like a lion, so has he crushed all my bones.
38:16 From morning until evening, you will bring me to an end; * I will cry out like a young swallow; I will meditate like a dove.
38:17 My eyes have been weakened * by gazing upward.
38:18 O Lord, I suffer violence! Answer in my favor. * What can I say, or what would he answer me, since he himself has done this?
38:19 I will recall to you all my years * in the bitterness of my soul.
38:20 O Lord, if such is life, and if the life of my spirit is of such a kind, you will correct me and cause me to live. * Behold, in peace my bitterness is most bitter:
38:21 but you have rescued my soul, so that it would not perish; * you have cast all my sins behind your back.
38:22 For Hell will not confess to you, and death will not praise you; * those who descend into the pit will not hope for your truth.
38:23 The living, the living, these will give praise to you, as I also do this day; * the father will make your truth known to the sons.
38:24 O Lord, save me, * and we will sing our psalms all the days of our life in the house of the Lord.
℣ Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
℟ As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, * world without end. Amen.
Ant. You will chastise me, O Lord, and you will give me life.
Ant. Praise * the Lord, for he is good, and he will be entreated on behalf of his servants.
Psalm 134 [5]
134:1 Praise the name of the Lord. * You servants, praise the Lord.
134:2 You who stand in the house of the Lord, * in the courts of the house of our God:
134:3 praise the Lord, for the Lord is good. * Sing psalms to his name, for it is sweet.
134:4 For the Lord has chosen Jacob for himself, * Israel for his own possession.
134:5 For I have known that the Lord is great, * and our God is before all gods.
134:6 All things whatsoever that he willed, the Lord did: in heaven, on earth, * in the sea, and in all the deep places.
134:7a He leads clouds from the ends of the earth. * He has created lightning for rain.
134:7b He has produced winds from his storehouses. * (8) He struck the first-born of Egypt, from man even to cattle.
134:9 He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt: * upon Pharaoh and upon all his servants.
134:10 He has struck many nations, * and he has slaughtered strong kings:
134:11 Sihon, king of the Amorites, and Og, king of Bashan, * and all the kingdoms of Canaan.
134:12 And he gave their land as an inheritance, * as an inheritance for his people Israel.
134:13 Your name, O Lord, is in eternity. * Your memorial, O Lord, is from generation to generation.
134:14 For the Lord will judge his people, * and he will be entreated in favor of his servants.
134:15 The idols of the Gentiles are silver and gold, * the works of the hands of men.
134:16 They have a mouth, and do not speak. * They have eyes, and do not see.
134:17 They have ears, and do not hear. * For neither is there any breath in their mouths.
134:18 Let those who make them become like them, * along with all who trust in them.
134:19 Bless the Lord, O house of Israel. * Bless the Lord, O house of Aaron.
134:20 Bless the Lord, O house of Levi. * You who fear the Lord, bless the Lord.
134:21 Blessed is the Lord from Zion, * who dwells in Jerusalem.
℣ Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, * and to the Holy Spirit.
℟ As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, * world without end. Amen.

Hymn
Lo, a clear voice rings, rebuking
Every hidden thing of night:
Let our dreams be driven far off;
Jesus shines forth from on high.
Now let sluggish minds arise,
No more lying on the earth;
For a new star shines upon us,
Taking every evil thing away.
Lo, the Lamb to us is sent,
Freely to remit our debt;
Let us all, with tears together,
Pray for pardon of our sins.
When he shines a second time,
And surrounds the world with fear,
May he not punish us for guilt,
But in mercy shield us then.
Honour, glory, virtue, merit,
To the Father and the Son,
With the co-eternal Spirit,
While eternal ages run.
Amen.
℣ A voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord.
℟ Make straight his paths.
